I keep asking me self
how some of this ****
called hip hop ever gets sold
goes platinum or
certified gold.
Some say its the now-a-days culture,
but all I see is slicksters
& hustlers, dressed in the suit
of a marketers.
I mean...
its the same old same
& most of these cats
ain't even got game!
Most of what they call lyrics
is straight up tame,
dowright lame
& yet they lookin' for fame
and getting it too!
Making real lyricist blue.
for some reason most hip hop
fans ain't got a clue. No mo..
Used to be hip hop was about something,
now-a-days its about bumping
& head nodding
forget the soul searching,
the revolutionizing
the mental re-organizing,
that hip hop used to be;
Forget the messages about being free,
moving forward progressively,
aggressively!
I keep looking for some-a
that old time "******s wid attitudes!"
but all I'm getting these days
is "******s wid platitudes!"
For real... I'm just sick of
this crop of ignoramuses!
they depend on video clips
to make hits,
drowning out the voices of
the true artists,
but still, I don't hate them
to any level of frustration,
'cause they're being propped up
by a clueless hip hip Nation!

All I want ot hear is some "Dear Yvette" or "My Adidas" or "My Philosophy" or "Fire and Earth" or "Planet Rock" or "I know you got soul" or "White Lines" or " Showdown" or "Gas Face" or "Nobody Beats The Biz" something on that line....
tight work Yet I have one question,
are they ignoramuses because they call themselves
****** or because they wear plaits?

besides KRS at the last rap groups to promote positive lyrics, the "industry" wants to sell bad boy image when a brother like as you know who wants to educate and uplift, my material was laughed at, i can write street had stuff by my heart and soul writes something different so don't blame the people blame

Well,lets just say this he was trying to be 'bout something. Too bad it had a tragic end. That wasn't enough time to be bout too much. But he was bout more than most these cats comin out here are. He spoke da truth in every rythme. He was fresh wit whateva he did. And he didn't have to cuss to much to get his point across.
